Wood Green gang member jailed for gun offences

Dkwan Mitchell, known gang member, was jailed

Dkwan Mitchell, 24, from Wood Green was sentenced to nine years in prison at Wood Green Crown Court on Friday (February 22) for possessing a gun with intent to endanger life.

The court concluded he is "a dangerous offender" after Haringey officers noticed him and a 16-year-old boy attempting to avoid them in March 2018 and, on searching Mitchell, discovered he had a gun.

Mitchell was found to be wearing a bulletproof vest, along with a copy of a Russian service pistol, modified to fire live ammunition.

Detective Sergeant Mark Attridge said: "It is highly likely that Mitchell, who is a gang member, was in Tottenham intending to seriously injure rival gang members."

Prolific burglar behind 11 crimes

David O'Shea, a 35-year-old Eltham man, was sentenced to five years and four months in prison on Wednesday (February 20) after pleading guilty to ten burglaries and one attempted burglary at Woolwich Crown Court.

This Eltham man is behind a number of burglaries

The offences were committed between August 2018 and January 2019 across south-east London and Kent. Each time, O'Shea smashed a back or side window before ransacking the property for cash, jewellery and electronics.

Detective Constable Brad Wood of the South-East Command Unit, said: "David is a prolific burglar and serial offender with many prior convictions who indiscriminately targeted homes to steal valuables.

"He left a number of elderly, vulnerable residents feeling violated, unsafe, and not wanting to leave their homes. He is now in jail serving a long sentence where he cannot commit further crimes against the law-abiding public."

Monster guilty of manslaughter after Tooting man's death

"Unpredictable character" Christopher McMahon

48-year-old Christopher McMahon, of no fixed abode, was jailed for ten years on Friday (February 22) for manslaughter in connection with the death of 50-year-old "local character" David Potter in Tooting.

David was found by police in his Tooting High Street flat in a pool of his own blood when an associate raised the alarm after not hearing from him for several days and noticing mail building up outside his door.

"Local character" David Potter had a previous conviction for a sexual offence

He had slash wounds to his neck, one of which had severed his artery.

It emerged that McMahon, described as "an unpredictable character who used threatening behaviour to intimidate people into getting his way", had told a woman nearby that he had killed someone on March 21, 2018, after banging on her door early in the morning.

West London

Robber who disguised himself as Deliveroo rider

25-year-old Michael Ahmed, from Wandsworth , was jailed for five years at Southwark Crown Court on Friday (February 22) after pretending to be a Deliveroo driver and committing robberies, as well as possessing a stun gun.

Ahmed pretended to be a delivery rider to avoid suspicion

Ahmed hoped that wearing a Deliveroo jacket and carrying the company's branded delivery bag, despite having no affiliation with the company, would help him evade police suspicion. He also taped up part of his moped's registration plate.

On November 30, 2018, he approached a 17-year-old in Westminster and demanded his watch, threatening him with a stun gun and stealing his car keys when he fled. Less than an hour later he attempted to rob a 25-year-old in Kensington and Chelsea, getting into a scuffle with him before fleeing.

Detective Constable Simon Pleavin said: "Michael Ahmed was ruthless in his attempts to rob unsuspecting people and was prepared to inflict harm on them by using a stunning device."
